Scrapbook Pro1.4.28

Overview

Scrapbook Pro is an innovative clipboard, which enables you to store more than one item for future use. All of your clip entries will remain even if you restart your computer. Scrapbook Pro offers the advantage of a discreet and simple interface. Moreover, you can use snippets, predefined tools, and self-configurable JavaScript filters.

Catalina just notified me Scrapbook Pro can damage my computer and asked for permission to move it to the Trash. I was also given the option of sharing the information with Apple to help others avoid the malware.

I will use it now intensively and try to contribute to making ME happy! :-)
In fact there are 2 discontinued gems I still use and will regret bitterly the day they will stop to work (anyway: " SIERRA AND HIGH SIERRA YOU CAN.... well you mean what you could do, as long as we can't load FREELY the apps we want!! Read FinderPop, Xtrafinder ...)
The 2 gems that Scrapbook could fully inglobe are Shovebox (TERRIFIC!) and PHTPastboard.
What I miss in Scrapbook and find in PTHPasteboard is the 'autoshow window'; no one of the clipboard storing applications can compete with it without this feature!
To reach the level of Shovebox the road is longer but the start is good, with snippets and editor but snippets would need hotkeys and edited the possibility to be stored in folders (in fact any clip worth to be saved and archived).
Very important would then be to can to be shared online or integrated in say Dropbox by storing editable data in shared folders.
Let's see where we'll go! :-)

This is not so much a software utility as it is a virus. It froze up when trying it out and has been completely useless, putting the spinning beach ball in my menubar for an hour. Once I was finally able to get into the Scrapbook preferences, I told it to not start at login... it has two variations of starting at login in the prefs—very confusing. Of course I disabled both. And then after another hour or so, I was able to quit the darn thing, and replace it with actual functional software (ClipMenu). Then... it reappeared on the next startup! So I scoured my hard drive and threw away probably a dozen things in different Library folders trying to track the pieces down. Still comes back! It has been a month that I've been trying to track down this thing... constantly throwing away a new thing from Aries software or named Scrapbook, but it always regenerates and opens itself. This thing cannot be uninstalled and it cannot be deleted, and it ALWAYS appears on startup—sucking up resources just to not work. If you try and contact the German company, they have a huge page of personal information to fill out just to ask a question. This thing ranks up there with MacKeeper... AVOID!
